I say if money is no obstacle then getting into an IS-F is a no brainer. From the sounds of it you would plan to mod the IS350 out making it a poor daily driver and voiding the warranty. The IS-F is a complete package and has a very cool dual personality. Lexus like for the most part and a monster when you get on it. Also fuel mileage isn't bad as several of us are getting 27+mpg on road trips. Insurance rates won't jump up much either. My Geico policy increased by $10 a month.

Keep us posted and welcome back!

If there was anyone on here who had the perspective I'm looking for, you'd be Da Man!!! I'm hearing more positives on the IS-F and leaning more that way... anything on mods? And what is your take on the stacked exhaust? If you like, PM your thoughts as you are correct on mods getting close to voiding warranty... lastly, my calculations have the IS350 modded would now run $53K+ so I'm now within $10K anyway (wheels included, although I may keep the IS-F wheels instead of going with 19" Work Varianzas and then I'm within $7K)...

Again, appreciate all the feedback everyone, defintely helps!!!

IS-F in Mercury Metallic!!!

Interesting how the poll went 61% for IS-F... now to time it out for late fall or wait until spring, we'll have to see..... maybe in winter when there'll be serious discounts...


THX AGAIN to all for their posts, great input!!!
